| Marino demands Dutch courage |

Udinese have already qualified for the last 32 of the UEFA Cup, but boss Pasquale Marino is demanding they secure top spot this evening.
The Zebrette wrapped up qualification with a 2-1 win over Dinamo Zagreb, but they still need a point against Dutch outfit NEC to ensure they finish on top of Group D.
Marino's men have been on wretched form in Serie A lately, but the former Catania Coach is allowing no room for error tonight, even if he rests some players.
“We must play a good game so that we ensure that we finish top of the group,” he told journalists.
“The key is to make the optimum use of our strength because we have a more important match against Milan on Sunday.
“NEC are a well organised team and they know how to alter their system as needed - their main strength is the group mentality.
“We need to get out there and impose our game because it is important to get the result we require.” |
